About

Welcome to my blog!

My name is James Burke and my interests are eclectic – I hope you find something appealing here.

I intended posting on topical subjects – major events and controversial issues – but in the first instance, one has to wait for the dust to settle, and in the second, one has to work one’s way through the fog of hotly-held opinion to get to the truth of the matter.

As a result, it’s taken longer than I intended to post on either categories!

I’ll also be posting on my various hobbies: from chess to astronomy to science to music, art, philosophy and religion.
